Description

Can I use --arg with boolean parameters? I can only seem to get it work with string parameters. I've tried "-a BUILD_PACKAGE=true" but evaluates to the string, "true", instead of the boolean value, true.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review how to pass boolean parameters with arg in jenkinsfile runner CLI; the correct syntax may require a type hint such as ` arg BUILD PACKAGE:bool=true`. Check the documentation or source code for boolean parameter support.
